“Is it because… she did some unspeakable things to you?” Song An squinted her eye as it was filled with caution. It was clear that she had an overall idea of the situation.
However, Ye Moxuan was too lazy to explain to her, so he grabbed his phone and went back to bed without uttering a single word to her. When he was in a bad mood, it was impossible to make him explain.
Song An chose not to force him to answer, and then she casually found a chair to sit on. Ye Moxuan kept quiet, and Song An just sat there waiting, not forcing him to speak. I’m back at North City anyway, and I have all the time in the world to be with you. If you don’t speak for a day, then I’ll be here for a day. You’ll need to talk eventually, right?
Seeing the psychological warfare enfolding before him, Xiao Su tried to hold back the urge to roll his eyes. I will be the one being tortured if they continue with this. Both parties emanated a strong aura that caused the temperature of the room to drop.
Finally, Xiao Su decided to be the peacemaker, so he went up to them. “Erm… Aunty Song, why don’t we go out? I’ll tell you everything.”
Although he wasn’t clear with the whole situation since he wasn’t present at the scene that day, he got a sense of what happened through the events that occurred during the past few days.
“I’m fine with that!” Song An nodded and stood up to follow Xiao Su out.
But how could Ye Moxuan agree to this as he held the secrets in him? So, he sneered, “Where are you going?”
That short sentence was enough to stop Xiao Su and Song An in their steps.
“Young Master Ye, Aunty Song has come all the way from Su City. If you don’t wish to tell her, then I’ll help you explain to her.”
Ye Moxuan lifted his eyes, and his gaze was as sharp as a blade. “Since when were you in control of my business?”
Xiao Su was stunned before saying, “No… I don’t want to be involved in this! I’ll go out now!” He didn’t want to stay much longer. I have feelings too, alright?
After he was done, Xiao Su left the ward swiftly.
At the same time, Song An kept quiet. What kind of situation is this? Since he forbade Xiao Su from saying, then I’ll just keep on waiting.
After that, the ward sank into an odd silence. Ye Moxuan continued fiddling with his phone to a point where he got frustrated over the cracked screen and yelled frantically, “Xiao Su!”
Xiao Su didn’t actually leave the ward as he was just standing outside. As soon as he heard his calling, he couldn’t pretend he didn’t hear it, so he went in. “Young Master Ye?”
“My phone! Take it for repair now.” Ye Moxuan handed his phone to Xiao Su, who walked over to take it. “I’ll go fix it now.”
“Give it back to me in 30 minutes.”
Xiao Su paused for a while before assuring him, “No problem!”
After he left, the ward again went into silence. In the meantime, Song An had calmed herself down and sorted in her mind everything Mrs. Lin told her. “Xiao Su is gone now. Let’s have a talk. The Lin family called me, saying that you bullied their little girl. Even though I don’t know what happened between the two of you that caused such a grudge, she is still a girl. How will she be able to go on with her life if you send her to court? Besides, she is also the precious darling of the Lin family.”
Precious darling? That description of her aroused a sense of mockery in his eyes. “So what?” She almost harmed my woman, and she has to pay a huge price for that. Even though the wound is now on my back, it could have been way worse.
As he thought about it, the coldness grew endlessly in his eyes while his ruthless expression actually scared Song An. She couldn’t help but ask again, “Just tell me. What has Lin Qingqing done to you that made you hate her this much?”
After she asked, Ye Moxuan went silent again. Song An was getting a heart attack from the anger bubbling inside her. She didn’t know what to do next now that Xiao Su was gone.
Just when both of them were fuming, the door of the ward suddenly opened.
Hearing the sound, Ye Moxuan’s eyebrows were raised. Didn’t I just send Xiao Su away to fix the phone? How is he back already after just leaving?
Then, he lifted his head to have a look and was shocked by who he saw as his pupils shrank.
Song An also heard the sound, so naturally, she turned to look at the source. As soon as she saw the person opening the door, she stood up in a flash as her expression fell. How could it be her?
Initially, Han Muzi planned to come during the night, but because Lin Qingqing wasn’t causing trouble outside, she could finally sleep soundly. After she went back home, she felt the need to thank Ye Moxuan for what he had done. Therefore, she cooked some healthy porridge to bring over to him herself. However, when opening the door to the ward, she never expected to see…
Song An.
Ye Moxuan’s aunt. That woman who was nice to her before. But now…
The atmosphere went silent for a few seconds, then Han Muzi came around and walked toward Song An with her lips twitching. “Hello, Aunty Song.”
Aunty Song… Such a formal way to call her.
Song An also came back to her senses, and her lips twitched when she tried to walk up to her. However, a figure acted quicker than her and straight away blocked her from Han Muzi. “You should go back.”
There was a strong and cold feeling in his voice that was stern and assertive. Han Muzi had a look at Ye Moxuan in front of him, then toward Song An’s shocked expressions, and smiled. “I’m not going back,” she said softly.
Ye Moxuan looked back at her in disbelief after hearing her words.
Afterward, Han Muzi passed him and walked toward the table, as if nothing happened. She placed down the thermos in her hand and turned toward Song An. “Aunty Song, I haven’t seen you for a long time. You still look as young as before.”
Song An stared at her with her confused eyes, not replying to her comment. Five years… This woman had been missing for a whole five years. Song An initially thought that she would never show up again, and she didn’t expect her to appear in front of her after coming back to Su City. What’s happening? And why is she in Ye Moxuan’s ward?
Seeing her gaping at her with a bewildered expression, Han Muzi smiled faintly. “Looks like Mr. Ye hasn’t told you everything, Aunty Song.”
“What actually happened?” Song An finally came around and focused all her attention on Han Muzi while walking to her. “Can you tell me?”
Han Muzi was stunned. Should I tell her?
Before she could open her mouth, Ye Moxuan, who was unwilling to explain to Song An at first, suddenly uttered coldly, “Don’t ask any questions first. You can come and have a look at the wound on my back before asking.”
The wound on his back? Song An tightened her lips and went over to Ye Moxuan.
She walked to his back while Han Muzi stood aside watching quietly. Unconsciously, her eyes crossed paths with Ye Moxuan’s chilling eyes as he gazed at her emotionally. It is clear he didn’t want to explain to his Aunty, but now… Is he doing it for me?
